Fire Hydrant Operations Technician

3 months ago


Stockport, Stockport, United Kingdom GMCA Full time

Position: Fire Hydrant Technician

Salary: £25,878 - £29,439

Hours: 36.25 per week

Contract: Permanent

Location: Within Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service Boundary

Your Role:

We are looking for dedicated individuals to join our team as Fire Hydrant Technicians. This vital position involves the thorough inspection, testing, maintenance, and repair of fire hydrants throughout Greater Manchester, contributing to our goal of fostering safer and healthier communities.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Conduct inspections, testing, and maintenance of fire hydrants based on a predetermined schedule in assigned areas.
  • Accurately document inspection findings using both traditional and digital systems (training will be provided).
  • Work autonomously while efficiently managing your workload, and collaborate with fire service teams to address high-risk locations.
  • Engage in physically demanding tasks, including ground work, lifting equipment, and handling silt bags (up to 22 kg), often multiple times daily.
  • Operate a company vehicle to access hydrants in various environments such as roads, pavements, parking lots, and open spaces.

Work Environment:

  • Outdoor work throughout the year, in all weather conditions, with significant periods of solitary work. The role consists of approximately 70% physical activities and 30% administrative tasks, which can be performed on-site or at a designated office.
  • Inspect around 20 hydrants each day, potentially entering and exiting your vehicle up to 200 times weekly.

Training and Development:

  • Comprehensive training includes:
  • Driving GMFRS vehicles
  • Health and safety protocols
  • New Roads and Street Works Act 1991 (NRSWA) certification

About You:

The ideal candidate will possess a strong aptitude for learning and understanding the technical aspects of fire hydrants and water systems. A full UK Driving Licence (manual & automatic) is essential, as you will be operating a GMFRS vehicle. Proficiency in digital tools, including Microsoft Office (Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel) and mapping applications (Google Maps), is required. Strong communication skills and literacy are also necessary.

You must be adept at planning workloads while considering traffic conditions and seasonal changes, remaining flexible to address urgent issues. Self-motivation is crucial, as you will need to work outside of regular hours to complete inspections effectively. A good level of fitness and overall health is necessary due to the physical demands of the role.

Desirable skills include familiarity with hydrant testing procedures, knowledge of the Greater Manchester road network, and experience with water service providers. Candidates will receive support and mentorship throughout their development, ensuring you are well-equipped to excel in this position.

About Us:

The Greater Manchester Combined Authority (GMCA) encompasses various strategic functions and service providers, including the Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service (GMFRS), Waste and Resources, Environment, Work and Skills, Research, Public Sector Reform, Police, Crime and Criminal Justice, Homelessness, the Greater Manchester Ageing Hub, and the Commissioning Hub.

We welcome applications from all suitably qualified individuals, regardless of age, disability, gender identity, marital status, pregnancy, race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation. We have measures in place to ensure all applicants are treated fairly and consistently throughout the recruitment process, including the consideration of reasonable adjustments for individuals with disabilities.
